10 Things WWE wants you to forget about this decade (the 2010s)

#1 Roman Reigns' forced push

Not even the Great One could save him!

Roman Reigns debuted on the main roster as part of The Shield in 2012 and was booked as the 'Powerhouse' of the trio. Even before the Hounds of Justice separated in 2014, Reigns was already being projected as the breakout star amongst three. Unfortunately, while the fans loved and cheered him during his days with the faction, his forced push as a singles star didn't go well with the WWE Universe.

The booking of the Big Dog made it very clear that Vince wanted him to be the next face of the company after John Cena, but fans didn't consider him ready to step in the shoes just yet. WWE's efforts to push Reigns as the big babyface failed miserably as he was booed by the fans, even after portraying a heroic character on-screen.

Things got out of control when he won the 2015 Royal Rumble as the entire arena was echoed with boos. WWE even tried bringing out The Rock to turn the crowd in Reigns' favor, but no mercy was shown to him. Despite all this, Vince and the company never really took a lesson and kept on pushing him as the face of the company.

From 2015-2018, Roman Reigns main-evented WrestleMania for four consecutive years, won multiple World titles, became a Grand Slam Champion, and ran wild through the entire roster. It was after an unfortunate announcement regarding Reigns battle against Leukemia and his heroic triumph that led to the fans finally giving him the babyface treatment. When will we get the 'heel' Roman Reigns back again?
